Statins
Back in 2008, I was diagnosed with AFIB and, after an echo, was also told that I had a bicuspid aortic valve. An ablation in 2018 lasted only 8 months and I was soon back in afib and back on rhythm and rate meds. Fast forward to this past March when I got Covid and my paroxysmal afib turned to persistent

Losartan
Have been on Losartan 100mg for a long time and most mornings I seem to be often clearing my throat. I looked up on Google was this a symptom of the drug and read to my horror that Losartan had been recalled because of cancer scares! I haven't been told by the pharmacist of any such problem. I hope it

AF ‘paranoia’ - echocardiogram
I don’t really know what to call it but I’m suffering from the feeling you get when you’ve had a test, know the tester can’t tell you anything but are trying to work out whether they gave you a hint or not 🤔 I was just about to phone cardiology to ask whether my echo had been booked at all as I’d had

Five weeks post Op
I am slowly feeling better, pain in the chest and discomfort in the back,left rib and sternum is still there but I know it will all fuse back together soon. I sometimes feel in my own world but present if you get what I mean. The one thing I have found difficult is the mood swings, I push myself to

wires
I am just enquiring if anyone else who has recently had open heart surgery, has a hole at the top of their scar. It appears like a hole but I have noticed wire sticking out (appears white) Just wondered if anyone has noticed this and what it could indicate.

Newbie - Constant bradycardia afib/arrhythmia symptoms?
Hi! I'm curious if anyone has/had constant 24/7 bradycardia afib/arrhythmia? What symptoms did you experience? Short background, husband had an ICD implanted 6 of Feb and it has caused/triggered constant afib (reading medical research I now understand these procedures are known to in cases be pro-arrhythmic

Is Isosorbate Mononitrate 60mg necessary?
I was asking her if this was to do with the
heart
murmur
she'd identified (now diagnosed as a mild aortic regurgitation). GP said no this was angina and needed urgently checking out.

INR readings
Can anyone explain INR reading and their importance please? My wife needs to be at a 1.8 but is currently at a 1.6. They've put her on a shot to raise her level but we're not sure what that really means. We're very new to this new lifestyle change. 1 week ago she had mitral valve replacement. Thanks

Mitral Valve
Hi to all, Up and till 7 March 2024, I never even had one thought about my heart valves. One week later I am scheduled for open heart surgery to replace the valve on 20 March 2024. I think I am still in shock and denial. I am feeling anxious about the operation and whether I would die in theatre. Should

Exercise following open heart surgery
Eleven weeks ago I had open heart surgery to remove a large atrial myxoma.

Aspirin vs apixaban and other blood thinners
Has anyone here with atrial fibrillation been prescribed aspirin rather than other blood thinners like apixaban? I would rather take aspirin but my cardiologist prefers apixaban. It seems like there is research that goes both ways. My GP rolls his eyes and says opinion changes from year to year. I

Hello This is mainly aimed at Females who have congenital heart disease. I have recently had my third open heart surgery, it’s been successful and I’m recovering well.
